SUMMARY:In-Space Transportation Club Session #4
DESCRIPTION:Steer the future of in-space logistics \nJoin ESA’s In-Space Transportation Club for Session #4 on 9 December 2025\, 9:30-13:00 CET. This virtual session will provide updates on CM25 decisions and the full-swing implementation of InSPoC and Odyssey\, focusing on two pillars for Europe’s in-space logistics ecosystem: shared interoperable interfaces for acting in space and deploying in-orbit refilling capabilities for Europe. \nInteroperability for in-space logistics  \nThe session will present the latest outcomes from the In-Space Proof-of-Concepts on rendezvous\, docking and refilling\, including: \n\nInSPoC-1: Status and next steps for releasing MVPs on rendezvous and GNC\, and on docking and refilling interfaces.\nInSPoC-2: Progress on cryogenic refilling\, including work toward standardising cryogenic couplers\nConsolidation: Integration of interoperable interfaces through upcoming workshops and transverse working groups. Open interface control documents (ICDs)\, free of export-control\, will support broad adoption across Europe.\n\nOdyssey\, Europe’s in-orbit refilling service  \nThe second part of the session will introduce Odyssey and launch the Odyssey procurement. Topics include the approach to distributed and centralised orbital propellant depots\, industry pitches from Primes and Tier-1 suppliers contributing to the Preparation Phase\, and the role of Odyssey in enabling a scalable logistics system for Europe across dual-use and exploration missions. \nUpcoming opportunities \nParticipants will receive an overview of next steps across the InSPoC and Odyssey portfolio\, including: \n\nForthcoming procurements to advance cryogenic capabilities (InSPoC-2).\nWork on on-board and shared intelligence (InSPoC-3)\, supporting the next phase of fleet-level autonomy.\nDevelopment of containerised and scalable logistics (InSPoC-4)\, supporting the growth of Europe’s in-space logistics capabilities.\nThe open OSIP Call for Ideas for InSPoC-4\, inviting contributions from organisations in participating Member States.\n\nRegister now \nThe In-Space Transportation Club: A SpaceTech Community\nThe In-Space Transportation Club\, initiated in the frame of ESA’s In-Space Transportation Proof-of-Concepts (InSPoC) initiative\, serves as dynamic professional network in the European SpaceTech community to discuss and develop innovative space transportation technologies. \nThe Club empowers the European SpaceTech community to shape the future of European space transportation by connecting stakeholders and supporting the development of essential in-orbit systems. \nAbout\nIn-Space Proof-of-Concepts\, or InSPoC\, is an initiative within ESA’s future space transportation ecosystem programme (FLPP). Through a series of open competitions\, InSPoC is de-risking space transportation capabilities and foster interoperable interfaces with incremental in-orbit demonstrations. \nESA is enabling the future: an ecosystem with a scalable\, modular in-space transportation fleet based on optimised reusable launchers. In such an ecosystem\, reusable space-tugs will dock to their payloads in parking orbits\, deliver them to their orbital destination\, and refill with orbital propellant depots\, allowing them to pursue their missions and/or providing transportation support for in-orbit servicing. \n  \nDiscover more about InSPoC and Odyssey
